There were some black dregs on the table in front of Su Yao, which were the impurities in the gold he calcined with spiritual fire.

Only these impurities are dissolved in the gold the size of a pigeon egg, which shows that the purity of the gold is extremely high.

There is still no unified currency in the tribe, and there is no material suitable for making currency. Now that gold appears, Su Yao's heart to make a unified currency is ready to move.

It's just that gold alone is not enough, Su Yao frowned, finding any one of silver and copper would not be as embarrassing as it is now.

"Huh~" Su Yao sighed heavily, it seems that the matter of making money will have to wait.

In the final analysis, the territory of the tribe is too small. If the territory is large enough, these will not be a problem.

But... Su Yao kept his eyes on the box, gold mines are very important, nights are long and dreams are many, and the place before the Yunshui tribe must be grasped as soon as possible.

There is also the Long Snake Tribe. He has seen many unspeakable dirty things in his memory from Snake Nine, among which cannibalism is just one of the most common evil things.

Su Yao wanted to destroy the Long Snake Tribe, and he never suppressed this idea from the first time he saw the Long Snake Tribe at the tribal assembly.

Regardless of whether he was motivated by selfishness or seeing such unbearable thoughts, in short, he didn't want the cannibals of the Long Snake Tribe to live.

The golden beads changed several shapes in his hands, and then turned into two delicate rings and landed on the table, together with two brand new hair ties.

Unknowingly, it has been almost a year since he came to the wilderness, and his birthday is approaching.

The headband was woven from the flexible puss that he had bred with his spiritual power. His hair was long and it was too troublesome to wear it, so he and Zhongli each braided one.

But now is not the best time to eliminate the Long Snake Tribe. The people from the Yunshui Tribe have not yet migrated, and the number of houses built is not enough.

Moreover, the rice in the field is also mature. It will take time for Su Yao to organize the people in the tribe to harvest and thresh.

Speaking of harvesting rice, Su Yao had to pick up a brush to draw drawings.

The first step of rice harvesting is threshing. If small-scale planting, the rice can be dropped from the rice seedlings by beating.

However, the tribe has planted thousands of acres of rice, and it is too late to hammer it.Only the most labor-intensive but most efficient tool can be used: the 'trip bucket'.

The tripping barrel in Su Yao's memory is called in dialect. A rectangular or square sturdy wooden barrel is made of wooden boards, and the shape and size must be at least two meters.

When in use, lift the bucket into the paddy field. After the rice is cut off, hold it in your hand and smash it hard on the inner wall of the bucket. The ears of rice hit the solid wooden wall, and the huge impact force makes the rice fall off the ears of rice. Come down and fall into the trip bucket.

Under such a vigorous beating, the mature rice will basically fall off, while the shriveled empty shells are still on the ears of rice.

After the rice in the tripping bucket has accumulated to a certain extent, it can be transported away directly by putting it in a wooden bucket or dustpan and putting it in a bag.

Threshing with a bucket is much faster than beating with a 'flail' and a mallet, and it is also convenient for bagging. The disadvantage is that it consumes energy, and the waist and arms will be particularly sore.

However, Su Yao was not worried about wasting energy. Compared with hunting in the ice and snow with an empty stomach in the cold winter, people in the tribe would definitely prefer the tiring of a good harvest.

Speaking of which, this gathering also found a lot of mature wild and native corn, just waiting for the rice to be harvested before planting another crop.

The paddy fields are too muddy now, as long as the water in the fields is drained after harvesting the rice and exposed to the sun for a few days, corn can be planted well.

The sucrose was boiled for three days, and finally more than 300 catties of sugar were obtained. One kilo catty was divided according to the number of adults, and the rest belonged to the tribe.

The sugar cane bagasse left over from the juice was dried and put into the firewood house, where it was used for smoking bacon during the autumn harvest.

And those strong sugarcane seedlings have already been planted in the ground, and after enough water is poured, it is only waiting for the sugarcane to germinate.

The work is still going on, and now there are more small animals in the tribe, and some slaves have to be allocated to graze, cut grass, dry and store, and they also need to take care of the crops and food in the public land.

The men are busy burning bricks to build houses, and the women have to put the last stubble of fertilizer on the cotton in the fields to ensure that the cotton trees can grow big and good cotton bolls.

Immediately afterwards, everyone received an order to harvest rice. Except for the necessary people who burned bricks to build houses and herds, everyone participated in the rice field harvest.

This order is very strong, partly because each family has their own land, and they are less concerned about the tribal shared paddy fields, and partly because after half of summer, due to the high temperature during the day, it often rains in the afternoon. rainstorm.

The mature rice branches have become soft, and they are easy to be blown by strong winds and fall down in the mud, and the rice is eaten by animals such as mice and rabbits on the ground.

With the long sound of the wild cowhide drum, dozens of wooden carts lined up to rush to the paddy field. Everyone wore sharp sickles on their waists and carried poles on their shoulders, ready for harvesting.

Women and teenagers with less strength cut the rice in front, and the cut rice was neatly piled up every three to five meters for easy access.

And the strong men carried the tripping buckets in groups of four to eight, put them in the rice pile, took off their shirts, grabbed a bundle of rice with both hands, and slammed it on the wooden wall of the tripping bucket.

The clear "swipe" sound reached everyone's ears, and the ripe golden rice fell into the bucket, and the breath was filled with the unique fragrance of rice.

"Hey, the stalks of rice are sweet, try it quickly." Several people in the tripping bucket swiftly put the threshed rice into bamboo baskets sewn with animal skins.

The men who were resting for a while suddenly discovered the secret hidden in the rice stalks.

"I'll try it too." Another man pushed aside a tender rice stalk, picked up the tender core and put it in his mouth, took a bite, and then burst into laughter: "It's really sweet, but it's too little. , otherwise you can feed it to the cubs."

The straw has only a little sweetness, but for those who lack sugar, this sweetness is enough to surprise.

An acre of land for twenty people can be settled in one morning, and the harvesting speed of the whole tribe is not slow.

The threshed rice is transported to the big field, where the place is large and sunny, and it is the best place for drying.

The old people cleaned up the field in advance, and then spread the rice thinly with a wooden rake. The earth-colored field was soon covered with golden clothes.

Young children are sitting in the shade of the trees with slingshots in their hands. They also have their own tasks. The birds on the treetops that steal rice are the objects they want to drive away.

The afternoon sun was so fierce that these savage women and men had to take advantage of the meal time to avoid the limelight.

However, it only takes nearly two hours of sunlight to completely dry the rice for the rice that is dried in the field.

The old people happily repacked the sun-dried rice in bamboo baskets, and Su Ya and the others registered it in the register after weighing it, and stored it in a cool and dry cellar.

After a tiring day, the tribe will cook a pot of thirst-quenching sour soup for everyone. Everyone just needs to wait at the gate with their own bowls and chopsticks. The bullock cart pulling the sour soup will deliver soup to everyone from door to door.

The harvest lasted for a full ten days. When the migrating people of the Yunshui tribe came to the tribe, everyone was singing simple labor songs to harvest the last batch of rice.

"Master God Envoy, I brought the big guy back." Chu Shan yelled loudly on his wildebeest, and the people of the Yunshui Tribe, who had traveled a long distance, were already crying unconsciously when they saw tens of thousands of people busy harvesting. full face.

Among the crowd who shouted chant to release their strength, many of them were their relatives and partners.

The joy of reunion dilutes the hectic days of fatigue and heavy rain. More than 6000 people were temporarily housed together, and Su Ya and the priest led people to diagnose their health.

Fortunately, Chu Shan brought enough food when he picked them up, and there was nothing wrong with them except that they were a little tired.

The harvested straw is bundled into straw handles by the slaves and transported to the tribe to feed the livestock.

The fresh straw is not only loved by wild horned horses, but also grunt birds and big-winged birds.

The amount of straw was too large, so Su Yao simply allocated two large carts to each family for them to handle by themselves, whether it was feeding the livestock or drying it to light a fire.

Dried straw has the effect of preventing insects and keeping warm. Ingenious women will pick the straw and weave it into a straw mat. When the cold winter comes, they can put it on the bed to prevent moisture and keep warm.

The soft straw mat is covered with a layer of cotton pads and animal skins, so you don't feel cold throughout the winter.

The rice seeds are high-yield rice that Su Yao took out from the space. Due to the lack of fertilizer irrigation, the yield is a little lower, only about [-] catties, but compared to the ancient world where Su Yao lives, this is already double the yield up.

The sun-dried rice was not distributed quickly, and now everyone can fill their stomachs by hunting and gathering, as well as vegetables and fruits grown in their own fields, and there is no shortage of food.

The newcomers to the tribe participated in the corn planting process under the leadership of Yunshan. Due to the increase in the population of the tribe, Su Yao asked people to continue to reclaim wasteland and paddy fields.

The reclaimed wasteland was planted with a second batch of sweet potatoes and high-yield corn, and the paddy fields were planted with rice as in spring.

The rice planted this time is early-maturing rice, which can be harvested in about [-] days.There are still more than half a month of summer in the Great Wilderness Mountains, and there are still three months to end in autumn. If there is no accident, the early-maturing rice seeds can be harvested before the cold winter arrives.

After the busy summer farming is over, the newly built house can be moved in after more than ten days of drying.

There is always a sense of ritual in moving, and in addition to the fact that everyone has worked hard together for so many days, Su Yao simply gave everyone a day off, resting during the day and having a bonfire meeting at night.

The tribe holds bonfire meetings several times a year, but everyone is never tired of it, and they are extremely happy and looking forward to it every time.

The soldiers can't stop hunting in the woods. This year they are busy planting crops, so they have less time to hunt in the mountains, and there are more prey in the mountains than in previous years.

There are many fish in the spring water that came out of the back mountain during the rainy season. Unlike the small fish in the mountain stream, there are many palm-sized fish in this spring water, with few spines and tender meat. Warriors who love fish They go together to catch fish in the spring water.

"Captain, I remember that you don't like fish, and you find it troublesome to eat fish. Why are you with us now?"

There is something to be released in advance tonight, okay?
